Like Mother... Like Daughter

About This Movie

So here's the deal with 'Like Mother... Like Daughter.' It's got this raw, almost intimate vibe that really pulls you in. Set in the backdrop of a ménage lifestyle, it dives into some heavy themes about morality and familial relationships. The pacing might throw you a bit; it meanders at points, but that's part of its charm. The performances feel genuine, especially the dynamic between the mother and daughter, which adds a layer of complexity. There's a real tension that builds when the father shows up, challenging everything they've established. It all feels very gritty and real, like it’s peeling back the layers of these characters' lives in a way that’s just not common in mainstream cinema at the time.

This film has had a somewhat elusive distribution history, making it a hidden gem among collectors. The scarcity of physical copies adds to its allure; you won't easily find it on the major streaming platforms. Interest is particularly high among those who appreciate lesser-known dramas from the early '70s that delve into controversial themes. It’s a fascinating piece for anyone looking to explore the nuances of family dynamics in cinema.
